Hi all!
I just subscribed here, because I have molluscum in my belly..:(
Actually , I had these white heads sure for a month, but I thought that they were from the sweat. (there were under the belt position). But a day, a red big pimple down the belly button appeared, and a few days later another one where the right leg and the belly meet. No scaring or pain. Or yes there was pain when applying force on them (the big red ones). At first I thought there was acne pimples, but when another 3 appeared, the one at the left leg-belly connection and the other 2 down the belt posiotion, I understood that I had to go to a dermatologist.
The doctor said that I had contagius moluscum and I had to remove them. So , another doctor removed them using a tweezer, and then applying iode. The doctror who saw me before the removal, also gave me an aclohol iode 2% solution to aply on top of the pimples. But after I had removed them, the other doctor also said to aply that solution.
But, I had removed only the white-head moluscum pimples, not the big red ones (they can't be removed..expect surgery maybe, there are like big red acne pimples). So, after 3 weeks from that time, these 7 red pimples are still there, I apply 3 times a day the alcohol iode 2% solution, but they dry and they continue to live..And as summer approaches, I can't stand the idea of having these red pimples in my belly, I want to get rid of them as fast as possible. So, I would be grateful if some experts here could told me their opinion, about this annoying and embarassing situation.. :(
Thank you in advance
Best Regards
